Paul Prouty, the former GSA Region 8 commissioner, won his appeal of the agency's decision to fire him in the wake of the Western Regions Conference scandal last April. The Merit Systems Protection Board's administrative judge found "no evidence" of wrongdoing by Prouty.

In reality the the Merit System Protection Board (MSPB) should be called the Federal Agency Protection Board (FAPB).
They exist solely to protect Federal Agencies from lawsuits.
Lawsuits that would end up costing the Federal government lots of money,
They do not protect the rights and merits of Federal Employees have been wronged.
Statistically, a wronged Federal Employee has a less than 1% chance of prevailing in a MSPB Complaint.
The MSPB is a joke.
